so in the end, you know, both candidates, the president, mitt romney, well, many people i talk to aren't happy about the degree of detail, but i don't get unhappy about the degree of detail about what, for example, mitt romney needs to go to congress to work out. remember, one guy can't do any of this. it's very disingenuous to think a candidate's going to go on the air during a debate with sound bites for a couple minutes and lay out all the details. but what is important is this tax code, if you modify it, it's like squeezing a water balloon. if you mot fi that earned interest, there will be another way that lawyers and accountants will get together to benefit from this looming policy. the real answer in my opinion for most americans is scrap it. but do poliansn either side of the aisle really have the nerve to scrap it? because if they were really serious, scrapping the tax code, writing something simple, checking every time of subsidy and see if it passes a litmus test, write some set rules for all this legislation, that's the way to go. but politicians are disingenuous. they write s

let's listen to more comments made by mitt romney yesterday. this is his take on president obama's policy. >> america as a proud history of strong, confident, principled global leadership, a history written by patriots of both parties. this is america at its best. it is the standard by which we measure every president does so is anyone who wishes to be president. unfortunately, this president's policies have not been able to our best examples of world leadership and nowhere is this more evident than in the middle east. i want to be very clear, the blame for the murder of her people in libya and attacks on our embassies and so many other countries lies solely with those who carry them out. no one else. but it is our responsibility and responsibility of the president to use america's greatest power to shape history, not to lead from behind, leaving our destiny at the mercy. unfortunately, that is where we find ourselves in the middle east under president obama. >> host: macron in virginia history outlined his foreign policy strategy and criticizi

romney did was go directly after the banks. are you surprised by that? >> five banks actually he went after. >> some of your pals and some people you've worked with. i thought both of you would have views. >> it's absolutely right, it's crazy to declare five banks too big to fail and also correct community and regional banks are suffering and they had nothing to do with the meltdown on wall street. >> his facts are incorrect. it's not five, it's more like 40 and the systemically important institutions has not yet been fully defined yet and may not only include banks. so i think when you say five banks those are the five largest banks but it's not the ohm banks being focused on. ask aig when they pay back if they're focused on by the fed now. so the facts were just wrong that he gave a great show but his facts were wrong. >> you know what my favorite moment in the entire debate was? >> what's that? >> when president obama said for the thousandth time he's going to stop the tax break for shipping jobs overseas. governor romney said i've been in business fo

you look at both of these gentlemen, they've both been in the political cal scescene for time. most of us have already formed an opinion of vice president biden. four years working with president obama. two presidential campaigns and 40 years in washington. i think we have an understanding of who joe biden is and what he stands for. on the other side of the equation, i'm personally excited to see congressman ryan tonight. he's a smart guy. he's in command of details. i am very hopeful that he will be able to carry forth the momentum that the romney campaign got out of the first presidential debate. >> how do you think he should play that? because the lead article in the "washington post" today notes how -- an emphasis in tone governor romney is tracking to the center for obvious reasons as we get closer to the vote. do you think ryan should do the same or double down on his conservative heritage for what that could do to get the vote out on the gop side? >> simon, i think what ryan should actually do is follow the boss' lead and i think that it's gotten the campaign to where th

. >> well, let me do both because the swing state poll set up the debate. first of all, what we've seen nationally is that mitt romney's vote is coming up. he's he closing on obama. he has taken a one point lead in the state of virginia. we've got obama up one point in the state of florida. but those are essentially tied races. the real key for romney is going to be making some more head way in the state of ohio where we show obama up six percentage points, but that's down from eight before. and we've seen romney elsewhere making progress in places like colorado, for example, where obama had held the lead, but mitt romney was in striking distance and he still is. now, the significance of tonight's debate is that vice presidential debates can either confirm and accelerate momentum from the previous presidential showing or put a brake on it. joe biden's job is to put a brake on it and paul ryan will have to keep it going. and when you think about match-ups between veteran politicians like biden and younger vice presidential nominees, we've got some pretty goo
